:grouphug: Due to infertility issues I have had the surgery 3 times. They never get it all and it comes back quickly for me. When I was a teenager a GP perscribed what is now Alieve for my cramps. For me this still works the best when I am really in pain. I take it sparingly but it really helps when I have to function normally. I hope you find a more sympathetic doctor.

Depending on your internet connection there should be interactive flashcards at Quizlet. My kids love that website!

Thank you so much! I just downloaded the sample for dd. Now she can decide easily if she wants the book. She has worked through most of the Elementary Greek series and wants to add in attic greek. I think this might be the best way to start to do that but she needs to do the work.

Math is the one subject I have always purchased ahead without worry. Most of it has been ordered from Rainbow because of the $150 free shipping offer. I have always completed my orders with math for the future. That way I save on shipping costs.

I agree that just the teacher's guide will be plenty. We did both LC 1& 2 and Dd just told me that using those made the first parts of Henle really easy. I hope your move goes smoothly.

With Dd I used Pathway readers-- the Amish ones. We had a great time with the workbooks. We still crack up when we see any kind of carriage. She needed to be able to identify the diffent types for the phonics lessons. It was a good thing I had invested in the teacher's guide! She became fluent with BOB books. Ds finely learned with BOB books. We refined with Ordinary Parents Guide.....which I loved. I truely thought it was the best combination out there. It was first published at that time. We tried Phonics Pathways which they both hated, too plain. 100 EZ they both rebelled on the exact same lesson (#10 I think). We also had the MCP phonics books and abeka materials. They were used but BOB books seemed to really cement things.

Praying! I hope they find her soon.

I notice that you are not new here. Did you homeschool at one time or afterschool? That makes a difference IMO on how to go about this. We have a fun thread going on how to home ed for one year out of a carry on suitcase. I can't figure out how to link with a kindle fire so you need to hunt for it. That will give you some ideas on what is needed. Most of the posters there have been doing this for a couple of years at least. Both parents and kids are adjusted to home ed. I think it might be hard to jump in to home ed and need to do it on the road with a teenager. Let us know a few more details and we might have more suggestions.

Dd really disliked that Landmark book. It sounds like the subject is well covered so skip it.

Praying....

After years of trying different remedies I learned that I am apparently allergic to many hair products so the plainest shampoo is best. In the UK I use something called "Simple". They make a shampoo and a conditioner and many other products. In the US I use Dh's rogaine shampoo/conditioner--it doesn't make me itch which is all I want. Many of my problems started with tea tree oil being added to products about 10 years ago. Definately not soothing for me!

Really glad to know my guy isn't the only one!

I hope you have a great time!

My cousin is in her mid seventies and has a daughter 6 months older then me on a genealogy chart we are on the same line but generation wise I am with her kids!

My reaction is how sad.

Since Fred's birth takes place during the Calculus book there is no way to do them in order! Personally I would either start with fractons or the new intermediate. Start where your dc should be placed skill wise or slightly below. My kids do want to read apples etc. But they came out after they were well on their way through LOF. I refuse to spend the money on them!

I went into my member profile and did it as an update about 3 hours ago.

Ds12 has been like that for about a year. We don't get that much done when they work together anymore. Independent work is a thing of the past, I actively teach again for everything except math. He can still do that if motivated but he is really good at math. He falls asleep if left by himself studying. I think he could sleep all day and just get up and eat tons. He is fine but so different from his sister!

Triple post. I wonder what I did wrong.

Double post--sorry!

Because I could do it myself. I have wanted to since almost the first day but didn't want to lose my post count. Now I feel like I can have a siggy etc. I even have an avitar--I felt like I was in witness protection!

Just wanted to say that I am sorry about the weird bit at the end. I can't scroll down behind it to delete not even in edit. I think it has to do with the kindle fire that I post on. Anyway sorry. UPDATE: DH fixed the typo.......

I would do as others have suggested and do some preplanning. Figure out where you definitely want to visit and look at the opening times. Many places away from London close for the winter months but are open for school holidays and special events. Our local English Heritage will be open in December for Christmas events on weekends then close until March. The websites frequently have great educational material. One of the easiest ways to get an overview of British history is to read "Our Island Story" by Marshall. It gives you a great idea of the timeline and a bit of knowledge about most major figures. We bump into history all over. In a local park there is a plaque that says that a long ago king died here, he ruled in Saxon times, my kids looked at it and told everyone who he was. None of the locals knew. LOL Marshall also did a European History. These books a easy reading SOTW level but good. I would also get a how to read a church book if you have any interest. The BBC also did a series on it. It is a really interesting topic. It is also fun to be able to tell which parts are Saxon, Norman........There are lots of Churches and they won't close for the winter. We were recently in France. The church architecture is very different. We plan to learn why before our next visit.

:grouphug: No real advice.

I have no experience with CLE but I would stick with it for continuity. If your ds is doing LOF and liking it I would keep that going also. There are so many great curriculums out there but it all comes down to actually completing the work. I wouldn't change what is getting done. LOF is great. For my dd it has turned into her primary curriculum for upper level math--she still suppliments with other. It will offer different perspectives on the same type of problem and different methods of problem solving which is what you need in an extra curriculum. Just wanted to add LOF has really worked wonders with a friends sons. They have used a good program from the start,no switching, but really did not get math at all. We all have tried tutoring them and could not seem to create long term understanding. She has added in LOF and they finally are getting it. She went back to apples with the 8 yr old. Fractions for 12 yearold.
